Following a scandal where Knicks’ star player Carmelo Anthony was suspended after he pushed a hard court verbal spat with Celtics’ Kevin Garnett all the way outside to the teams bus – did owner James Dolan make sure to keep a low profile?

Nope. That’s for amateurs. Plus, Dolan is a pro enough to notice the gaping hole in the New York sports “drama department” since the Jets’ season ended.

So instead, Dolan reportedly ordered two of his audio techs to sit on both sides of the court with massive recording devices for everyone to see and tape everything Anthony says during the game – both on the court and on the bench.

At first, Anthony was surprised to hear his boss basically had him wired, admitting he had no idea. Suddenly, a day later during an interview while the team was in the UK to play the Pistons – Anthony told reporters he appreciates Dolan’s loyalty saying, ” I got an owner that looks out for me.”

Hey, ya don’t think Dolan has a tattoo of his wife Kristin wearing a #7 Knicks jersey do you?

With Friends Like This, Who Need Enemies?Thanks to a combination of former athletes feeling the need to keep relevant and the awkward lack of privacy offered to those athletes by social media venues like Twitter and Facebook, we now know that Magic Johnson and Isiah Thomas are friends once again.

Johnson Tweeted this:

I had a great private convo with @Iamisiahthomas. Glad we can be friends again.

The Broncos early playoff ouster at the hands of the Baltimore Ravens led many Tim Tebow fans to take to Twitter and note joyously how the Jets back up quarterback (for now) has more playoff wins with Denver than Peyton Manning.

And not one of them seemed more thrilled than Tim’s brother Peter. A self-proclaimed Christian man – just like his famous brother – who Tweeted “Am I the only one in Denver who’s happy now?”

And he even proceeded to make fun of the Broncos current quarterback:

Did anyone else just see Payton Manning give the awkward turtle sign?!?
